ERLIN2 (ER lipid raft associated 2), a member of prohibitin family of protein, was first identified in hematopoietic cells. It consists of a conserved prohibitin-homology domain (PHB). It is present in the endoplasmic reticulum (ER).
Synonyms: Anti-C8orf2; Anti-Erlin-2; Anti-NET32; Anti-SPFH2; Anti-SPG18
Storage: -20C
Application: Anti-ERLIN2 antibody produced in rabbit, a Prestige Antibody, is developed and validated by the Human Protein Atlas (HPA) project (www.proteinatlas.org). Each antibody is tested by immunohistochemistry against hundreds of normal and disease tissues. These images can be viewed on the Human Protein Atlas (HPA) site by clicking on the Image Gallery link. The antibodies are also tested using immunofluorescence and western blotting. To view these protocols and other useful information about Prestige Antibodies and the HPA, visit sigma.com/prestige.
Biochem Physiol Actions: ERLIN2 (ER lipid raft associated 2) plays a crucial role in inositol 1,4,5-trisphosphate (IP3) signaling pathway. It forms a heteromeric complex with ERLIN1 that binds to IP3-receptor tetramers. Mutation in ERLIN2 gene in juvenile leads to amyotrophic lateral sclerosis and spastic paraplegia.
